    Meme Thread for Both Posting and Discussing Memes

    That's... a little harsh, but still funny. Also, I couldn't help but think of the transfer student's next line: "I don't want to be a princess!" "Don't worry, in 10 seconds you won't be."

    Musk actually buys Twitter.

    This is definitely how things are supposed to run at a company. At the place I work at, we're supposed to have a 'Standard Work Sequence' or SWS for every job. It's supposed to be a written list of things that need to be done for that job, as well as how those things are supposed to be...

    There's a motorcycle wearable airbag that you can choose between purchasing the detection module outright or renting it on a subscription fee: AIRBAG Like, I understand that as a business, you want to make money and you've got a good product. I also understand that a lower up front cost can...

    Musk actually buys Twitter.

    I'm wondering if twitter thought this lawsuit through, because discovery could end up being more damaging than what's already been exposed. There's a reason that companies often try to settle rather than go to discovery, and I don't think tactics like running the opposition out of money because...

    I'm not surprised though. When I looked at her campaign website months ago, she was primarily running on abortion as her platform.

    You mean you've never accidently eaten a full meal when you've fallen down? Strange.

    Science Where does enviormental realism start and end?

    I've never really considered this aspect, but it makes a lot of sense. If you go by that map that Cherico posted the best place for wind power in the US is this large blue area... which pretty closely covers the area of tornado alley. If electric windmills weren't such an investment of...

    United States Biden administration policies and actions - megathread

    I wouldn't, but I know that some people will for practically anything. You know those 'I did that' Biden stickers that people have been putting on gas pumps? I've also seen 'Fuck Trump' stickers placed on gas pumps in the same way, and I live in Texas. Trump Derangement Syndrome is a thing...

    Found that New York has a snitch program for enforcing their Idling laws: $87.50 for 3 Minutes: Inside the Hot Market for Videos of Idling Trucks I'm not going to get into whether the law itself is good or bad, because how much pollution idling trucks produce isn't something I know a lot...

    Excellence in Shitlording

    I want to laugh because it's such a petty thing to be worried about, but I know that not all gas station owners own the pumps/tanks at their station. If they have a deal with a franchise, preventing 'vandalism' such as the Biden stickers might be something they're obligated to do by their...

    United States Biden administration policies and actions - megathread

    Hey, don't try to push this on Josh. If this was Letsgameitout, we would have seen the world start lagging already, and I can clearly see that things aren't moving at one or two frames per second.

    United States The Lone Star State (TX) Thread

    A county clerk isn't a very 'glamourous' job, but they're the one in charge of county records. They also have power over some licenses and permits. And are also involved in elections involving the county. Though I think more relevant than the responsibilities in this case is the fact that most...

    United States The Lone Star State (TX) Thread

    I haven't put any effort towards looking at who actually will get the Dem nomination, but at a glance through their personal 'x for attorney general' websites: Joe Jaworski #1 priority: not embarrass texas, followed by affordable health care and legalization of marajuana. Lee Merritt: Voter...

    United States The Lone Star State (TX) Thread

    Well, that's a relief. When my employer got news of the mandate, they put out a 'we know this is a divisive subject, so we haven't made a decision until we get more info.' memo. The memo's been on the wall and hasn't changed for a month, which could mean they forgot about it, or that they...

    Media/Journalism Cringe Megathread - Hot off the Presses

    Wow. That take is amusing to me. I wonder if Carter knows that there is more than one form of government, of which democracy is one? Or does he think that that saying the government is inefficient is somehow not valid criticism?

    I'm currently in San Antonio, but the family I visited for Thanksgiving lives near the Goliad/Victoria area.

    It goes in that we are theoretically social distancing, but almost all of my coworkers are "distancing" by 1-2 feet when they want to talk. Life is mostly normal. And Thanksgiving was great as well!

    Tennessee Man Threatens Little Ceasars Employees With An AK-47 Over Pizza Wait!

    There are people who have no patience, and who believe any wait means it's not actually fast food.

    Breaking News Car Driven By Terrorist Plows Through Christmas Parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin. 6 Dead, 60+ Wounded

    Just took a look at the wikipedia page of the event. The article has been changed to 'parade attack', with both a redirection link for people looking for the waukesha parade car crash, and a disclaimer of how this is a current event, so the article will be changing as new info comes in. I...
